For the 1st 3 or 4 years after they were gone, I could tell you the date and hour that the last load left and how many were on that trailer. The last one to load was a crazy 2-year old; I had to 'bait' her into the pen and hide behind a couple of sheets of plywood made into a blind. Took the better part of a half-day; all I remember now is that it was in May..........'06 or '07........probably.
